grumswall Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 That forced change shouldn’t have been the problem had we not signed injury prone players.

Berra, was out for the majority of Hearts season back in the PremiershipLang done his acl in a freak accident and isn't actually overly injury prone. Keatings wasn't someone I thought a good signing regardless of injuries. Vaughan is clearly the most injury prone player in existence but if we actually got a bit of luck with him, we have one of the best players in the league available. Who could genuinely predict with certainty that he would have the same injury after medical professionals have said it shouldn't be a recurring problem How many games has berra missed through injury? Considering his age, not many. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A league which hasn't existed for a decade. You can see just how in the head of Raith Rovers we are by the scenes during the match yesterday. I've not seen an away teams fans celebrate a goal like that at Gayfield for years - and as for the absolute fannies chucking bins and stewards about, just embarrassing on so many levels. A middle aged woman in their own support then appears to start telling them off, they scuttle away, and 5 minutes later they've conceded two quick goals and are being roundly mocked by AFC fans and players a like. Funny. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 To be fair, singing "so fucking easy " when drawing 3-3 with a team on dreadful form with half a team out, was quite strange for a team going for a league title. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play to you for being the first to break the news on here that signing Goodwillie might not have been the best idea.

SotesBornalichtie Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Disappointed, annoyed and frustrated after that game. A good fightback from 3-1 down but we should never have been in that position after taking an early lead and dominating the first half. A mix up or lack of communication (?) between our defence and keeper handed Raith the equaliser. An early goal for Raith in the second half, another goalkeeper error, and we resorted to the default game of Scottish football, long high balls to no one in particular, just get the ball up the park and out of defence. Raith were finding gaps in our defence and when they scored a third goal it looked like game over. Hilson worked as hard as ever when he came on and got a deserved goal and when McKenna scored the equaliser we pushed for a winner but Raith held out. Full credit to Raith, their makeshift side were worth a point and could have taken all three. The big guy Poplatnik gave Tom O'Brien a hard time and not too many have done that this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killiefaetheferry Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Was that a 6th booking for O'Brien? Suspension? Or was one in the cup? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoseMarooniho Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Not as bad as the mutant attempting to throw the bin over the seggy fence. Piss poor behaviour on both sides of the fences. We need to move them further apart or I fear the seggy will revert to 50/50. That would be a shame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Was that a 6th booking for O'Brien? Suspension? Or was one in the cup? You need 12 bookings for a ban after it's past halfway in the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clashcityrocker Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 If there had been another 5 - 10 mins in this match then Arbroath would have scored a winner - but Raith managed to (just) hold on for their point. I also think we should have brought the subs Linn, Gold and Stewart on a little sooner - it's a big ask expecting them to deliver the good with only 4 mins left on the clock. What this does prove is that the players never give up, they are determined to take this to the wire and were battleing and fighting for ball on every inch of the pitch. Killie now have the advange and won't be easy to catch - but I also think Killie will drop points. The away match against Killie is now looking like a must won match and we now need some help for other teams - but I am confident Killie will drop points and the gap will close. Still in the mix and aiming to either win the title or finish 2nd is an amazing achievement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
